Bug Description
I only just put 2 and 2 together to figure this out. It's not technically a regression because it's been like this for a while, I just never realised.
Flash mako with a recent release.
Add some social network connections in System Settings -> Accounts
(I setup twitter and facebook)
Put some videos on the phone
Reboot phone
Wait until someone tweets at you or sends you fb messages.
Observe you get no notification of those tweets
Start watching a video on the phone.
Notice that the tweets suddenly come through while the video plays
Looks like the mediaplayer app has some social integration which forces friends to sign in? These should appear without me having to play a video or open "friends".
e.g.
Rebooted phone, tweet sent via desktop
10:31: https:/
10:32: https:/
10:33: https:/
etc
10:34: - no tweet notifications received on phone at all.
10:51: - open media player - get spammed with tweets above and more dating back a couple of days.

Alan, you're asking for Friends to start at login, which it never has. Kai put together a branch to resolve precisely this, do you think you can test it for us?
